If anyone is wondering, this is the same way to change a speed sensor for the Jeep Liberty. As there are no videos on KZfaq for that vehicle. Great job.
@1GuyWith6Guns3 жыл бұрын
I have a 2006 Liberty. Does the speed sensor act as ABS as well? Do I have 1 sensor or 2? I have trouble in cold weather and I think this is the culprit.

rshinton1 I have a 98 jeep grand Cherokee and my ABS light is on as well, so when I drive it between 20mph and 60 it feels and sounds like it's running rough and like it's rubbing against something. Is the same thing happened to you?
@rshinton17 жыл бұрын
Joe Vargas maybe check the caliper. I say this because you state the ABS is on and it felt like it was rubbing. If there was recent brake work done or other work done in this area then check and make sure eveything was repaired correctly. Good luck.

Really appreciate your video thanks! I managed to swap out my front driver side sensor this afternoon. What a job!!! 😱 Like most other folks on here, the old sensor broke. I tried drilling a small hole, then screwing into it and pulling on it. The screw broke off leaving half of it inside the hole! Lol. Anyway, after lots of drilling, scraping, cursing, and taking a breather, the last remnants finally came out. Highly recommend having a can of compressed air to hand when doing this. The new sensor was a very tight fit and needed some ‘encouragement’ to fit into the hole, but it’s all installed and your video was so easy to follow it helped immensely! After yesterdays new plugs and coils and todays new abs sensor, happy to report (so far) no more random error codes flashing up at me! Happy camper 👍

Good video. Surprised it does not have more views already. I used it to replace a rear ABS sensor on an '07. The sensor broke during removal like in this video but I was able to remove the rotor and then pop the broken senor forward through the hole without a problem instead of pulling it out. Diagnostically, prior to the sensor replacement my dash lights were ABS ESP BAS and traction control icons all illuminated. Starscan at dealership said " implausible speed between left front and right rear". The technician initially said that the computer might be going bad because it would be incredibly rare to have two sensors go at once; however, it seems that perhaps the computer needs to read the speeds of the opposite corners for vehicle stability control and this is why the scan mentioned both the front left and right rear. Anyway, the rear sensor (49 bucks) fixed it. It was a pretty cheap fix. Good instructions. Thanks again!

When you jack the WK up, you should set it back onto the jack stand so that it supports the weight, then bring the hydraulic jack back up and allow it to hold some weight as well. If the jack failed the shock loading could cause the jack stand to fail too. And you should never turn the wheels when only one is off the ground. It could walk the vehicle off the jack.

Great video, used it to change out the front passenger wheel speed sensor today. I made the same mistake as you in breaking off the old sensor leaving the plastic bit stuck in the sensor hole. However, I drilled a small hole through the plastic piece that was stuck, placed a screw into this hole, and used the back end of a hammer to leverage it out. Took 2 minutes, much easier than using a Dremel or risking damage to the surrounding area. Just a suggestion.

I just did this to my Jeep. I had the code when done. Had to do it all over again. Its a good idea to check the new sensor for resistance with an ohm meter as they can be bad even when new. Also...your wheel lug threads should have been cleaned and lubed. You can not torque the nuts correctly with so much corrosion on the threads. Some lube on the new sensor O-rings is highly recommended as well. Wait, im not done. Lol. You should check the old sensor with a meter before removing. it is not always the sensor that is throwing the code. It could be a bad connection or wire. I unplug and do a ohm test first thing. I would clean those threads on all four wheels lugs and properly torque the lug to factory recommendations. The lug nuts should spin on most of the way easily by hand. Also the clearance between the keys and sensor end is pretty important. The surface the sensor bolts down on should be sanded till all debri and corrosion is removed. Stuff a piece of paper towel in hole first so as not to get dust in hole. Ok. Im done. Lol.

@dalesanders7028 Жыл бұрын
Hey Coach. 7yrs ago you posted this great video, and it's just as relevent today as it was then. I wanted to offer some advice. When removing lugnuts, they're pretty tight and it's best to use your body weight to loosen them. Use a heavy foot to loosen or tighten. If you use your arms, which are weaker than your legs, then your back, your spinal column, has to support your arms, under heavy conditions like this, and may due permanent damage to your back muscles. So, for that job, I would use my legs to help loosen those overtightened lugnuts. That's my two cents. But sure learned something from your post, so "thanks" all in all

Had 3 bad sensors. ABS BAS/ESP and another warning light, forgot which one. A bad sensor kills the cruise control. Traction control button didn't work. And it screw with my transmission. Sometimes it wouldn't shift until after 4 or 5k RPMs. Now that I relpaced the sensors everything works perfectly. : ) Make sure you meter the new sensors at the Auto parts store. The sho ohm between 600 and 1300 ohms. I had to do one twice before I learned this. When I went to buy the rears, both metered too low. Had to go to 3 stores before I found one within the specs.

I think they are different part numbers. With all those lights on it might be a wiring issue. That's still the problem with this jeep after this repair and a recall that flashed the computer.

first of all if you pull a wheel off to do any service you should coat the wheel lugs or studs with anti seize so they don't get rusted. As to the ABS line it does not connect in all those places they're simply retainers to hold the line in place - - the connection is where you separate the wire from its connector with that little red plastic piece. When you fit anything with O-rings puts a little bit of brake fluid or PB Blaster on the rubber as it lubes them to slide in easier - - both those fluids not only lube but soften the rubber - - do not use too much because anything that gets in the way or blocks the sensor will result in a false reading of the rotor not turning and give you pedal feedback. When you put the caliper bolts back in use anti seize - - when you put bolts into aluminum use anti seize because if they oxidize they will snap - - I put it on bleeder screws because there's nothing worse than doing a simple brake job and then snapping off a bleeder screw. I've been doing mechanical work for years and I may use a jack to lift the car but I always put a jack stand under the frame somewhere as a backup - - its one thing if you are just taking a tire off and on but the minute you try breaking other bolts loose you should something besides just the jack
@jth1987leb5 жыл бұрын
gary doyle you DO NOT put anti seize on wheel stud, caliper bolts or caliper bracket bolts. Anti seize on these fasteners will make it harder to get the correct torque which can cause them to back out. Caliper bolts and caliper bracket bolts come from the factory with loctite on the threads and it’s recommended the old loctite be removed and new applied. Some manufacturers, like ford use toque to yield caliper bracket bolts that are one time use and need to have loctite on the threads. Anti seize should not be used on these bolts or nuts.

I have a 2005 jeep grand Cherokee Laredo 4X2 have the abs light on and it shows( electrical braking system) and when I go slow under 10mph the the brake make noise and don't work good. also how did you get it to show the code
@jth1987leb8 жыл бұрын
+Margarito Ramirez chances are you have a wiring issue in the dash board like this jeep does. when it comes to your brake noise have you had your brakes changes recently or not for awhile. To get the code have the key in the off position then turn it to the on position three times.

Excellent video. Hope it helps me fix mine that just started acting up. Oh, I wonder if, in addition to the lube spray, if a screwdriver on EACH side of the sensor would lift it out of that hole without breakage? I'll have to try that :-) Oh, I couldn't get the the 'code' either with the 3 on/off procedure. * ABS light happen to be off at that time (maybe this cancelled the code readout?). * Jeep in "Park", foot off the brake * I performed an On/off, On/off, On/off/on. (Tried on=on and on=start position but released before starting) Update: 10/30/2016 I was able to get the DTC 'code' from the dash window. It seems that the above procedure does not work UNLESS the ABS alert lamp is actively glowing (on). Also, I was able to get the sensor out without breaking it. I performed the procedure shown in the video but used 2 screwdrivers, one on the top (near screw hole) and one on the bottom of the sensor. I started by tapping each screwdriver top/bottom, back and forth until both screw drivers were able to be wedged under both ends of the sensor. Then I gently wriggled the sensor out by rocking both screwdrivers under the sensor edges. Update: 11/06/2016 Replacing the front sensor didn't resolve the problem so onwards to the rear sensor. The rear sensor is designed different from the front sensor but the removal procedure is similar. Getting the sensor removed from the mounting hole was a LOT more of a hassle because of the tight fit. What finally helped remove it completely was repeated firm taps on the internal end of the sensor, located inside the hub, with a medium length of wood and a hammer. Due to the tightness I also had to use firm taps with the hammer when installing the new sensor, striking as close to the center of the sensor BUT NOT on the wire that leads into it. After disconnecting the battery (to reset the code?) the ABS error light, the erratic brake grabbing AND the erratic Navigation Display Icon, which tracks vehicle movement, was now back to normal :-) 2005 Jeep Grand Cherokee - Limited - 5.7 Part used = Autozone Duralast Premium ABS sensor (EXACT match) :-D

Joshua Harden Thanks. I been trying to help an out of state family member figure out which ABS sensor is bad through this test but she can't get it to work on her 07 Jeep grand cherokee. She says she's doing that but can't get the codes to come up. I told her to take it to autozone tomorrow and see if they will run their obd2 test and see if it will show. Hopefully anyways.
@jth1987leb8 жыл бұрын
+TheAmericanUhate that will give a code. Another way to find out which abs speed sensor is bad is to floor it then slam on the brakes. The wheel with the bad abs speed sensor should leave a skid mark. When you pull the code on these jeeps it tells which side left or right, not which wheel. I was tried of trying to find out so I just through four new abs speed sensors at it.
@TheAmericanUhate8 жыл бұрын
Joshua Harden I'm not sure what she's doing wrong, I'm trying my best to not have to drive 11 hours away to find out lol. That's a good idea about brake checking it to see which one slides, I would have never thought of that. She lives on a dirt rode so it won't be too hard to find out I don't think. I don't blame you on doing all 4, if one is bad then the others are probably pretty close to the end of their life span as well. She said the dealership wants $125 and I told her the sensor only cost $15 to $25 so hopefully this will work. Thanks again too!

Update 5/5/2017-I purchased a BlueDriver OBD2 reader and it displayed 2 stored faults, C100A (left front wheel sensor circuit), and C1011 (left front wheel speed sensor signal erratic performance). there was no DTC display fault. Replacing the left front sensor cured the intermittent ABS light, Traction control, Service electric brakes and 4wd system display errors. No problem since.

You didn't test to see if the sensor works? What if it doesn't? What next? I wish people would do the what if's in their videos.... What if using the dremel, damage is done down in that hole? What was the white yellowish stuff in the hole before you put the new sensor in? I would have been digging that out not knowing if it should stay?
@jth1987leb8 жыл бұрын
+judith wise The “white yellowish” is the grease from the wheel bearing. completely normal, nothing to worry about. This was is my parent’s Jeep and they had the code U1418, which is at the beginning of the video, So I just decided to change all the abs speed sensors for them. The diameter of the hole would not cause any issues if it was scratched because the kind of sensor this Jeep uses is magnetic. The hole just has to be inclosed, which it is, by the bearing and the top of sensor which a rubber O ring. The sensor is also mounted to the hub with a 10mm bolt. Great questions
@judithwise49978 жыл бұрын
+Joshua Harden One more question. You don't show changing the brakes disc and pads, but I'm sure you know about this as well. I have a 2005 Jeep Cherokee Laredo 4x4, 4.7 ltr V-8 trail rated. I was told I needed new brakes (All 4 corners and complete brake job) before my inspection is due in April. Garages in my area are charging 750 for front and 800 for rear. I can't justify giving them 1500 when the equipment runs for $380 at most and $270 on sale. I know I can do this, I'm very handy for a women. Love to do it yourself jobs. I research and do my homework. However this is something that could effect my life and someone else's. How difficult is it to do this? My husband is NOT a handyman and would rather pay others to do everything. He does not want me to take this on. Which makes me want to do my own brakes just to prove I can! My daughter has done her own brakes on her Pontiac G6 however that is not a 4 Wheel drive vehicle. On another note, If I decide to do this, should I change my ABS sensors as well while I have the brakes completely off? My car has 144,000 + miles on it and has never been changed. What say you?
@jth1987leb8 жыл бұрын
it is extremely easy to do. I did all for wheel on my parents jeep for less the 300 in parts. the one thing you have to remember, IF your Grand Cherokee has it, because my parents does, is there should be a rubber ring holding the rotor on. it is located on the hub and sits in a grove. all you need is a small pike to get it out. removing the rubber ring “should” allow the rotor to come free. Just remember to put the rubber ring back. Having it there holds the rotor in place and makes assembly easier.The only reason you should ever do you ABS speed sensor is if there is a warning light on the dash saying it needs to be done. BUT, my parent have the same jeep as yours and their dash is messed up due to a wire that has become exposed. I will be doing a video on that. Go to rockauto.com and order the rotors and pads. Way cheaper. Just do not order the cheapest rotors and pads. they will not last long and will not provide you with the stopping power that SUV needs. Remember to take you time, and support the SUV on jack stands. do not reply on the jack to hold the weight on the SUV. Take a look at my other videos. Most brakes are all the same and I am sure I have some videos on replacing rotors and pads

Never leave the vehicle on the Jack. The vehicle should have been raised till the wheel clears the ground and is string in the jack stand. Would the jack have failed it could have made the Jack army and fall over. Comment is being made only for safety reasons.

I had high hopes for this. Right off the bat you call wrong sizes. Lug nuts are 3/4" or 19mm unless you have aftermarket leg nuts. And do not hit the sensor with a screwdriver. That is why they broke off. Use channel locker and pull.
